Electric cars are the future, but it’s not clear if Ayro (NASDAQ:AYRO) has much of a future itself.

Over the past few months, I’ve supported the comeback narrative of Carnival (NYSE:CCL) and the cruise ship industry. At some point, CCL stock will make for a tremendous discounted opportunity.

If ever there was a symbol of Robinhood traders, beleaguered car-rental company Hertz (NYSE:HTZ) would be it.

Not that long ago, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) was struggling to prove the concept of electric vehicles. Today, seemingly everyone wants to get in on the action. The latest to intrigue speculators is Fisker.
